Using TempData

Represents a set of data that persists only from one request to the next

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult FillStudent(Student student1)
{
    TempData["student"]= new Student();
    return RedirectToAction("GetStudent","Student");
}

[HttpGet]
public ActionResult GetStudent(Student passedStd)
{
    Student std=(Student)TempData["student"];
    return View();
}

Alternative way Pass the data using Query string

return RedirectToAction("GetStudent","Student", new {Name="John", Class="clsz"});

This will generate a GET Request like Student/GetStudent?Name=John & Class=clsz

Ensure the method you want to redirect to is decorated with [HttpGet] as the above RedirectToAction will issue GET Request with http status code 302 Found (common way of performing url redirect)

Yes you can pass the model that you have shown using  return RedirectToAction  GetStudent    Student   student1      assuming student1 is an instance of Student  which will generate the following url  assuming your using the default routes and the value of student1 are ID 4 and Name  Amit        Student GetStudent 4 Name Amit  Internally the RedirectToAction   method builds a RouteValueDictionary by using the  ToString   value of each property in the model  However  binding will only work if all the properties in the model are simple properties and it fails if any properties are complex objects or collections because the method does not use recursion  If for example  Student contained a property List lt string gt  Subjects  then that property would result in a query string value of       amp Subjects System Collections Generic List 1 System String   and binding would fail and that property would be null

Just call the action no need for redirect to action or the new keyword for model     HttpPost      public ActionResult FillStudent Student student1                return GetStudent student1     this will also work           public ActionResult GetStudent Student student                return View student
